Why do a lot of people dislike feminists?

I'm currently 15 years old and I consider myself as an activist and a feminist. I've recently noticed that a lot of people really HATE feminists and I just don't understand why.

As I was watching a youtube video about this lady who supports feminism, I scrolled down to the comment section and I saw so much hate. Some people called her "stupid" or things like "this just gave me cancer". I understand that some people think feminists hate men and some of the time that is the case (and I completely disagree with those feminists who hate men). But in reality, feminism is the belief in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes. But again I don't understand why there is so much hate being passed around.

Best Answer: Because you'll find a lot of them engage in manipulative and deceptive tactics. Equality is one thing, and everyone deserves that but there's a good amount of feminist behavior that's on par with pride groups (the bigoted kind).

Because most are racist (hate white men) misandric (hate males in general) rude, and are pretty damned stupid. Notice how they will NEVER debate you if you disagree with them. They'll just be emotional and use name calling. change my mind, prove me wrong. hit me an email and debate if you disagree.

Feminists themselves are not bad, but many go overboard, and promote female supremacy rather than equality. Theres also turfs, which are trans-exclusionary radical feminists which are never good since they believe that trans-women shouldn't be allowed to... exist and that there just pretending to be women.

There are many feminists (NOT all of them) out there who are notorious for their:

* aggressive attitude (e.g. like the anti-feminists, those feminists will attack others, even other feminists and you, if they are not so militant)
* hatred of men, Western culture, and White people
* demanding that works of art be more influenced by feminism (e.g. unrealistic female protagonists, too much "forced diversity"), and then there are some feminist sites that condemn some works for not adopting feminist views
* too many modern works of art appearing to be "nothing but feminist propaganda"

Source(s): Anti-feminist websites: after all, to understand why do people hate something so much, listen closely to what they say and their own views.

Cause most feminists live in a fantasy world that women could excel just as much as men in absolutely any discipline if given the opportunity. I once had a feminist argue with me that the only reason women aren't playing in top tier professional sports leagues is cause they aren't given the opportunity. When the reality is, women are biologically built differently and have far less muscle mass.
